Property Description

A rare find: Originally built in 1900 and enriched with a 1940 addition, this home tells the story of two eras — classic historic charm paired with mid-century appeal, and its been updated for clean modern living. This home carries the warmth of history while embracing modern energy efficiency. With 3 bedrooms (1 non-conforming) spacious updated bathroom, and thoughtful renovations throughout, it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of Ypsilanti's story while enjoying contemporary comfort. The heart of the home is its beautifully renovated eat-in kitchen (2025), with new cabinets, counters, flooring, sink, paint, and lighting. Just off the kitchen, the living room holds a Regency 1500 EPA-certified wood stove providing both a nostalgic centerpiece and an eco-friendly complement to the full-house Goodman heat pump HVAC system. Set on an extra-deep 40 x 257 ft lot, the property offers abundant space for gardening, play, and relaxation. Perennial edible, medicinal, and pollinator plantings—alongside apple and walnut trees—make this a truly living landscape. The rear-facing solar panels (with an insurable, transferable warranty) continue the theme of sustainability.
Historic charm blends seamlessly with over $125,000 in upgrades, sold as-is with:

Large accessible bathroom (2022) with low-barrier walk-in shower and stabilization bars

Basement & 1-car garage for laundry, storage, and utility

200 amp electric (2019), radon mitigation (2016), encapsulated crawlspace (2020)

New paint, flooring, roofing upgrades, and foundation leveling (2025)

Energy-efficient A.O. Smith heat pump water heater (2023), plus insulation and sealing

Covered porch with fieldstone foundation (repointed 2021)

All within walking distance to Downtown Ypsi and Depot Town, this home offers the best of location, history, and forward-thinking efficiency.
